Penang: Bukit Tambun Seafood

2007.08.08
Bukit Tambun--a quaint and small fishing village about 30-45 minutes across from Penang Island--sitting by a kuala (the river mouth where it meets the sea), Bukit Tambun is blessed with countless seafood restaurants dotting its main street and these restaurants offer loads of fresh bounties of the sea.

The home-grown restaurants mushroomed over the years and Gee Seng is the pioneer. Unfortunately, Gee Seng only open for dinner.

So, have to settle for another restaurant called Jety opposite Gee Seng for lunch.

It seems like every visior to Bkt Tambun will have this - thik teng (some kind of snails with spikes).



Toothpick poking is fun!
